Primary 4 have been really enjoying their visits to Crossgates.
Today, we presented the residents and staff with an Advent wreath. During a previous visit the children, residents and staff designed handprints, we used these to create a joint Advent Wreath to remind everyone of the lovely friendships that we have built with our new Crossgates friends. We have one in our classroom and there is now one displayed in Crossgates. 🎄
Today we enjoyed making Christmas themed play-doh creations. We shared stories and had lots of fun and laughter with our new friends.
